I remember the times when forums were lighthearted, humorous places where people could laugh. Very few people got banned, blocked, berated and it was so good.
Serious topics were discussed as was run of the mill stuff. And all was well.
Over the past few days hostility, anger, bigotory have all been here and it's saddening.
What has happened dear forumites? I'm not looking for a mass love in (although that might be nice) but can we have our forums back to the way they were. Even for a little while.

i just refuse to sit on the fence, if i see something im not happy with or dont like the way someone has spoken to another i will voice my opinion. It may come across that im perhaps a tad harsh but id rather have a voice and stand up for my own beliefs than be ignorant to rudeness |

I've only been on the site a couple of weeks so I don't know how things used to be but I always check out new posts in the forum n always see someone being shot down in flames. It's enough to make you not want to join in on topics or write posts.
Before joining I thought most swingers were layed back and open minded but after reading some comments on here I now think a little differently.
Glad to see others are still up for a bit of banter though |

I remember the days when Swingers Chat forum was all fields. View was in shorts, Femme still hadn't been introduced to flip flops and Granny Crumpet was only a Mummy Crumpet. ANEL hadn't even been invented yet!
It was shit. |

I have been a good girl of late and totally avoided all the one's that have been contentious, sometimes, I think more should try it!
If no one is arguing most posts will just have the OP and the sound of trip trap |

Forums seem the same to me. Then again. I just do my own thing on here. I'm here for a laugh...if others are a bit moody or got something up their arse. I can't do anything about that.

I like a mass debate but I have been avoiding anything contentious looking for the last little while. It makes it less interesting which means I spend less time on here.
Groups go through the forming, storming, norming and performing stages and the forum gets like that as new people join and new groups are created (even if just for a day). It's all one cycle and if you time it right you can jump in for the good bits.

I'm with you on this.
I was thinking the same thing.
Seriously a lot of the people that were here when I joined have left.
Now it's different, it's got really political, it's got very serious now.
It's nothing like it was.
I've not been here that long, but quite frankly I'm getting fucking bored.
Most the posters who used to post hardly post now.
Fab has had a lot of publicity in the papers hence the insurgence/creation of really weird topics in the forums.
The forums are defo different now.
There are some really strange people here now.
I keep in touch with a lot outside of fab anyway, nearly everyone in my friends list I actually know/met..apart from one or two recently added.

In the good old days, we lived in a paper bag by side of road. And folk were proper right folk. And women were proper right women. And could buy 100 chocolate bourbons for penny. |

Tis true I don't bother so much with it these days. It's about as much fun as eating a runny shit sandwich (I imagine) |

Been here 7 yrs and the mood in the forums goes in cycles. Posters come & go, attitudes change, but invariably the same topics will be debated.
I personally don't think it's any worse on here now than it has been in the past, but maybe I don't get involved with threads where a lot of sniping is going on |
